Description

Broken ToysStudio Model Sheet Print Group of 6
(Walt Disney, 1935). This is a group of six vintage Disney
Studio model sheets from the Silly symphony short, Broken
Toys, all noted by the original working title, Broken
Dolls. Ben Sharpsteen directed the short, which was released on
12/14/35. Animation model sheets are highly collectible and an
important part of the Disney animation process. Many were printed
on photographic paper in the late 1930s and early '40s, as no copy
machines existed at the time. This group includes a model sheet
print for the doll based on African-American actor Lincoln Perry,
better known as Stepin Fetchit. There are two copies of the "Sailor
Boy" and "Dolly Delight;" the other sheet includes images of the
Japanese doll and Clown doll. Sizes range from 13" x 10" to 13.75"
x 11". Condition is Fair to Very Good, with the Stepin Fetchit page
containing a fold crease with two small tears.
